Taal: nld
Categorie: nieuws, documentaire

Two-part documentary looking at how Europe's royal relatives ended up at war with each other. This looks at the realignment of the European powers and the emergence of the alliance system in the years following the death of Queen Victoria in 1901. It examines the key role played by royalty in smoothing the path to the Anglo-Russian entente of 1907, and at the part played by the kaiser's erratic, unstable personality in the growing isolation of Germany in the years leading up to 1914.
